hill in a handbag

Modern Marvels

iPhone can create blog posts! I hadn't thought of that. There's a TypePad app! Great potential. I heart iPhone.

Cool...

I found this really cool web site the other day.  It's called Daylife.  You can type in a search word and compiles a listing of zillions of recent mentions.  The cool thing about it is that it's categorized by news, blog, photo, quote, date...It's a very handy site and I've enjoyed playing around with it.  Click here for a cool sample page.

Blackberry

So yesterday I viewed my blog on Todd's BlackBerry.  That was pretty cool.  I need to get a new cell phone/wireless device.  It's funny because when Todd first got his BlackBerry I was jealous and every time he sent me an email the end always read: Sent from my BlackBerry wireless handheld.  I thought that was soooo totally not nice to rub it in my face until I realized that tag-line is on every email sent from his BlackBerry wireless handheld.  Hee hee.  Still jealous but now looking into the Motorola Q.  Will keep you posted.

Dreaming it all up again...

Today is the official re-launch of hill in a handbag.  There are a few aesthetic changes but the content will stay the same.  Thanks to Adam for co-designing and solely creating my new logo and Aunt Barbara for consulting.  Lemme know what y'all think!

Ringback Help

So I'm going to do the Verizon ringback tone thing.  There are commercials on TV for it all of the time with Green Day's  Holiday.  Anyway, I've gone through all of the ringback tones and can't seem find one that's really perfect for me.  So I'm going to let ya'll look through and see what you can come up with.  There's no U2 or Police.  Ugh.

So far my top picks are:
Orange Crush - R.E.M.
Mystify - INXS
Super Bon Bon - Soul Coughing

Click here to check out the tones.

NOTE:  I went with Super Bon Bon but I'll probably add another one later.

Nano Nano!

Natalie got a Nano last week and I must say it's the coolest thing I've ever seen.  I want one badly...maybe next year.  I know this is a childish take on life but I get very jealous when people have cooler stuff than I do.  So I just have to suck it up and be happy for Natalie and her prosperity.

Speaking of...Did ya'll know I was a crazy Mork & Mindy fan when I was a kid?  I had the Mork suspenders and a Mork & Mindy lunchbox.  I even  walked around all of the time saying Nanu Nanu and Shazbot.   I also perfected the ability to sit on my head for long spans of time.  I haven't tried that in a while.

The Band Wagon
